Restaurant Impossible will film an episode at Drake's Place in Ferguson on November 5th and 6th and would like to get you involved.
Restaurant: Impossible Ferguson!
The Food Network has a show called "Restaurant Impossible" in which they travel to struggling restaurants around the country to help them turn it around with a new menu and restaurant renovation.
They are filming an episode at Drake’s Place in Ferguson on November 5th & 6th and one of the special aspects of the show is community involvement. "Restaurant: Impossible" is hosted by Chef Robert Irvine, who's challenge is to turn the restaurant around in 2 days with only $10,000 and the help of the community! They are seeking volunteers in the area to help the design team renovate and redecorate the restaurant, and also inviting locals to dine in the restaurant when it re-opens at the end of the show.
